The young boy suffered from Fragile X Syndrome, a genetic condition that causes developmental issues. These issues can include learning disabilities and cognitive impairment.

According to charging documents, on the night of Jarrod Jr.'s death back in 2014, Jarrod Sr. found his son's corpse - two days after he last checked on the young boy - but didn't tell his wife about the death for three days. She allegedly didn't realize her son had died until she smelled the corpse.

In addition, a grand jury found that the couple neglected their daughter, 10-year-old Arianna Tutko. On the night her brother's body was found by authorities, Arianna was reportedly found "very close to death." A Penn State Hershey Medical Center pediatrician said that the young girl suffered from a severe brain injury. The girl's eyes were matted shut from dirt, she had thick scales all over her body and she clearly had not bathed in an extremely long time.

Arianna and her four surviving siblings have since been placed into foster care.
